This is the third release of Lion Developer Preview 2, and as Apple doesn't list any details about the latest fixes and changes incorporated into it, it is likely that there are no major changes since the release of the second build of of Lion Developer Preview 2 two weeks ago. Let us know in the comments if you spot anything worth noting.

Does anyone have problems with launching launchpad? With me launchpad doesn't even launch anymore in this build. It only shows some screens flickering. Does someone have a solution for this problem?
Thanks
To stop the windows from reopening just uncheck the box in the shutdown/restart dialog.

My computer gets so bogged down. I've been a customer seeder for several years, but by far, this has been the worst experience. I know it's my choice, but I may go back to SL. I've also got this weird bug where the screen randomly splits like it is across 2 monitors, but it's actually one.

April 29 2011 at 6:23 PM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyDoes that mean that Lion has its own iOS like uninstaller? or a built in one... The usual "drag it to the trash folder" doesn't always delete everything so I currently use CleanMyMac to uninstall applications so that no preference files or others things related to one application are left behind. I definitely think that an easier and complete uninstall option is a feature that has been missing from OSX.
